Yes it is, BTW a new owners group took over the Champasack Palace Hotel. They are doing a renovation now and the pic I posted of the Kings room was just the other day. No bar on the roof as of yet but all the rooms the gal showed me were all redone. New bedding, curtains, matresses, paint ect.

Sounds great, Looking forward to another bang up thread.
I've got to say say I'm envious that you're doing what you're doing. I speant the day on sils Honda wave scooting around Pakse. I found a little abandoned hamlet and got a tour of a new build. Had a Latte at the brickhouse Sports Bar and toured around downtown. Met a couple from Slovenia and popped back to the fishes crib in time for dinner now. Then its off to a party in town at bils. He's back from Thailand on a bit of a break.

Oh and picked up a bottle of Get this "King Robert" Blended Scotch whisky for 75,000 kip. I figured it's got to be better than that 5,000 kip Lao Lao.

Another fixer upper. Right on the Don river. The river is taking it for a ride these days.

Anyone have any info on the history of this place? I've searched the web and found nothing. It's an old hotel with a nightclub of sorts at one time.
Lots of heavy equipment along the Don and Mekong rivers currently. Seems a major uplift in the riverfront is ongoing.

This place is on the Don river just east of Pakse. Not that it matters though I'm curious. Gf say many places were just "left" back in the late 70's. I've seen many abandoned places. Some quite large buildings ect.
Reminds me of just why I wouldn't want my eggs in this basket.
